The Pelican Brief

Did you hear the news today? Pelican Can-Can is on his way Looking for a new dish Something made of fish He is waiting for some luck But with his web feet please don't call him a duck I know you have some fish tales Some gigantic as big as whales So poets lets have some fun Let the fish tales begin and have their run. How big of a fish tale do you have? See Iolanda's Blog
